FAQs
DH362URKA1480 is a three-pole, non-fusible, single-throw auxiliary power switch rated for 60A and up to 600V. It uses a UL Listed, NEMA 3R painted galvanized steel enclosure, giving outdoor-capable protection. Plan for standard panel mounting, account for a 16 lb weight, and ensure compatible wiring topology for three-wire, three-pole configurations. This supports quick isolation and reduced wiring complexity in control panels.
DH362URKA1480 is designed for industrial panels requiring 60A service up to 600V, with three-pole, non-fusible switching in a NEMA 3R enclosure. It is suitable for manufacturing lines, data centers power distribution, and outdoor equipment housings where rugged protection and safe isolation are critical. The unit’s single-throw operation simplifies switching logic and reduces potential mis-wiring during commissioning.
Key certifications for the DH362URKA1480 include UL Listed and NEMA 3R enclosure rating, which confirm safety, reliability, and environmental suitability. UL listing supports compliance with electrical safety standards in industrial facilities, while the NEMA 3R enclosure provides rain and corrosion resistance for indoor and outdoor installations. These certifications help streamline procurement and reduce risk in regulated projects.
The 15A GFI receptacle option adds outlet protection for sensitive electronics and field devices within the enclosure, reducing the risk of ground faults and improving personnel safety. This feature is beneficial in distributed control panels, machine bays, and outdoor enclosures where occasional receptacle use is required while maintaining overall system protection.
To maximize longevity, perform periodic visual inspections, verify enclosure integrity for the NEMA 3R rating, and ensure wiring remains within the three-wire, three-pole configuration. Keep the UL Listed device within its recommended operating conditions, monitor for corrosion or paint damage on the galvanized steel, and replace any worn components promptly to minimize downtime in high-demand facilities.
